					<description>Regarding 1) ok, got me.  I don't think I've ever ordered it with the Splenda.  But actually these days, I treat Starbucks and Coffee Bean pretty equally, but I will say this:

The difference is in the quality of service, and of course there's a range for any chain.  Coffee Bean ranges from deplorable rude cocky insulting (DRCI) service to average service.  Some Starbucks can also have DRCI service, but you also find some Starbucks with actually friendly, warm service.  (Woohoo Starbucks!)  But to make it more complicated, sometimes the friendly and warm service is so phony or over-the-top you wish it was just the average but authentic service of CB (i.e. the &quot;I genuinely don't really care about you&quot; service).</description>

					<description>in my defense:
1) splenda is usually added after the customer receives their drink
2) i just woke up myself, and in need of comsummables such as food and coffe.

ha! hehe.</description>

					<description>Ahem... Apparently I'm not the only one that needs coffee.  If you want to get technical, shouldn't it be Iced (size) Soy 1.5-Splenda Latte?!  Haha!</description>
